half one man has cut back less than half and 10 others dropped out When the clinic began Dr Charles A Ross the director said that if 50 per cent quit smoking for six months he consider the clinic a suc cess Besides will power the clinic employs the psychology of group action and two to substitute for nicotine the oth er to control appetite which often increases sharply in the absence of smoking Drugs were given for the first two weeks to 30 of the men The other 30 received imitations Neither the doctors nor the participants know who received the drugs This information is contained in a code that will not be broken until the six months have passed Ross thinks that at least some of the men quit without benefit of the which stimulates the nervous system as does nicotine Participants In the

Federal Court but failed to follow correct proce dure in that he did not attach the previous petitions and the reasons for deniel to his petition to the Supreme Court The high court said We can not do

chain reaction leading to congressional explosion over a tentative Pentagon decision to deny the Navy any more nuclear carriers When Paul H Nitze named Monday to succeed Fred Korthi comes before the Senate for con firmation it seems certain he will be asked for his views on the continuing controversy over whether carriers should bi phased out in favor of missiles and missilefiring submarines Korth who said he was re signing to attend to my press ing private affairs probably will be asked to explain if his decision had any connection with his apparently futile efforts to get a new nuclear carrier built Associates said his defeat in the nuclear power argument sped his decision to quit Some Congress members said they thought Korths action stemmed from the row over the controversial TFX warplane contract award and Sen Carl T Curtis RNeb said Korth vill be questioned again about t Cominumst regime for i million inhabitants Adenauer said that reunifica tion could be seen on the hori
